I am thinking that I should simply make a very simple notch filter
that suppresses the spurious line by 10 or 20 dB. I can then do
an A/B comparison of the measured ADEV with and without the filter.
If there is no change, I'm done. Otherwise, I add filtering in
steps until the ADEV reaches an
Surely all that's required is a simplistic worst case analysis.
Just assume that the value of Tau is always the worst possible so the full
effect of the modulation is always seen.
If the worst case phase modulation is say phi
then the worst case ADEV (Tau) will be proportional to phi*T/Tau
One might also do some trials based on comparing ADEV results between a
clean carrier signal
and ones corrupted with varying degrees of FM (for example), to get a feel
for the problem. If
nothing else, one ought to be able to get some feel for the sensitivities
involved.
